Concrete finishers running 34" to 42" power trowels (with the EDCO "A" adapter) need float blades that can survive hours of abrasive slab work without warping or dulling. The EDCO 40060 M-1 float blade is a 9" x 14" flat blade built from abrasion-resistant steel with turned-up edges, designed to pack surface aggregate into the slab and push bleed water to the top before the finish pass begins.

Frequently asked questions
When should I switch from float blades to finish blades?
Float blades stay on while the slab is still soft enough to need aggregate packed down and bleed water forced to the surface. Once that water has evaporated and the surface can support the trowel without float blades marking it, finishers typically swap to combination or finish blades for the final passes.
Can this blade be flipped and reused?
Yes. The 40060 is a reversible float blade, so once one edge wears down you can flip it to extend service life before replacement.
Does this fit my EDCO trowel without an adapter?
This blade is sized for 34" to 42" EDCO power trowels using the "A" adapter. Confirm your trowel's disc size and adapter compatibility before ordering to avoid a mismatch.
